Title: radical cover
Post by: mikatronn on April 15, 2008, 06:25:56 AM

to get it back to OOB the info sheet on the website says to sand to 400 then polish with brunswick high gloss. should i wet sand or dry sand it, or does it even matter. sanding to 400 first surprised me. isnt that pretty dull?

Brunswick usually specifies "wet sanding" for their sanded balls, so it would make sense that they'd use the same methods for their polished equipment.

Always add water when sanding a ball. Reduces dust and prevents the plastic material from melting due to heat and pressure, which can affect the ball reaction negatively.
